Notessingle nest in tall reeds 20m from Vm 4392. Bird flew out so opened back to check. Note green material - nest been repaired. New faeces indicate that the bird is probably occupying the nest. nest: 1. comment: local home owner actively feeding birds. Often see up to 4-6 golden and many Village weavers amongst the birds (also thickbill - reported). Suspected correctly that there are numerous golden weavers in these reed beds - see other reports.
